Ethereal Maze Puzzles are mazes
that you solve by rolling a ball through an innovative new three
dimensional lattice structure which forms the maze paths. The goal is to
roll the ball through the Labyrinth Maze from the entrance to the exit.
An additional challenge is to navigate the ball from the exit back to
the entrance.

Brand new for September 2013
is "Snaking Stairways".
This has the longest and most twisted path of any maze so far. The
featured maze game puzzles are the original: ?Zig Zag Zog? (easy),
?Floating
Labyrinth? (intermediate) and ?Escher?s Playground? (advanced). Start out with one
of these, or a pack of all tree. The next two models added in 2012 are ?Twisted
Symmetry?, ?Minotaur?s Castle?. I have incorporated symmetrical
designs on the faces of these mazes. I have also made these models larger
in size and thicker so that it is easier to paint them if you like (photos
of painted mazes are found on the product pages for these mazes). Try one
or both of these new brain fun mazes after you have mastered the featured
puzzles. They are both advanced difficulty, but one of these is a little
easier than ?Escher?s Playground? and one is more difficult. In my next
maze design many of the rods making up the outer wall has been removed. To
keep the ball contained in the maze it is held in a clear plastic case.
This exposes the skeletal inner framework of the new "Bare Bones" maze.
This also has rods added to impede your path and others removed to lead
you astray. All this make for an expert level maze.

I have also been designing some assembly puzzles. The first is a new
twist on the classic SOMA cube puzzle. This is called "SOMA's Revenge" and
it is an interlocking assembly cube puzzle with sliding pieces. The new
and unique challenge for this puzzle is to assemble the pieces into
interlocking cube configurations. It also has hundreds of other challenges
that involve assembling the pieces into various figures.

Ethereal Maze Puzzles are Maze Games that you solve by rolling a ball through an innovative new three dimensional lattice structure which forms the maze paths. The goal is to roll the ball through the maze from the entrance to the exit. Start by pushing the ball into the spring loaded entrance ( it looks like a backwards “J”). Tip the maze in different directions to roll the ball along the paths through the maze. Don’t worry, if you make a wrong turn, the ball will not fall out of the maze. If the ball runs into a dead-end you can just roll the ball back the opposite way and try another path, that’s all part of this fun challenge. When you reach the exit there is a spring loaded button to press to release the ball from the maze. The exit is in a corner of the maze, where you will find a bar with the little button sticking out from the side of the maze.
The design elements of Ethereal Maze Puzzles are registered and protected works. Copying any of the design elements is strictly prohibited.
The complex internal structure of this new type of Creative Puzzle Maze is only possible through the magic of 3D printing. The material is Laser sintered Nylon, which makes them strong and durable.
